How do I manually cleans the garbage of FF?
How do I manually cleans the garbage of FF?
Hi
I know FF has built-in functionality to clean history, cache, cookies
I know there are programs such as CCleaner that do the same
I want to learn ok?
When I want to clean (index.dat, Temp, Cookies, History..) running IE 8, I create another account and from this "new account" I move all the IE 8 contents to another folder, next I create a partition and move this folder to this partition, finally Format and Wipe this partition with Acronis
I know the locations where all the "garbage" stores in IE 8, but I am lost with Firefox
IE 8
In IE 8 I delete all the content in these locations manually
\Documents and Settings\<Username>\Cookies\index.dat \Documents and Settings\<Username>\Local Settings\History\History.IE5\index.dat \Documents and Settings\<Username>\Local Settings\History\History.IE5\************\index.dat \Documents and Settings\<Username>\Local \Settings\History\History.IE5\************\index.dat \Documents and Settings\<Username>\Local \Internet Files\Content.IE5\index.dat And others paths
I hash of the folders and subfolder of FireFox/Mozilla Which folder do I have to delete? I do not want to have any "garbage"
If I can understand how to clean all the Temporary files, history, cookies, download history, form history manually using FF it will change my Life!!!
Cookies (Tracking cooking found) *
I do not have History, No Bookmark (Testing) **
I do not know if this are the Bookmarks **
Could you pleace mark as -Garbage- the path I have to delete?

The cache is in this location and all its sub-folders.

The urlclassifier3.sqlite file stores the encrypted contents of the phishing protection database and it is best to leave this file to avoid Firefox having to rebuild it.
You can remove the file if it really gets to large (around 50 MB is not unusual).
The bookmarkbackups folder stores the daily created JSON backups with a maximum of 10.
You can set that maximum in Firefox via the browser.bookmarks.max_backups pref on the about:config page.
It is best to leave the other files in the Firefox Profile Folder (Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\) intact, and use Clear Recent History if you want to remove data, to avoid database corruption.
